A poor immigrant cabinet maker from Scotland, he eventually employed over 100 workers at his New York City workshop, and became one of the most respected and well-known furniture makers in the nation throughout the 1800s and beyond. He championed a dark wood, neo-classical style that became the standard of upper-class décor in nineteenth century America; he even changed the spelling of his name from Fife to Phyfe, probably to be more neo-classical.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWidely copied, Duncan Phyfe-inspired pieces are plentiful in the antiques world, though most are likely not made directly by him (he died in 1854). Since his pieces were rarely marked, however, you never know! \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eShipping\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis item is \u003cstrong data-end=\"34\" data-start=\"13\"\u003etoo large to ship\u003c\/strong\u003e and is available for \u003cstrong data-end=\"98\" data-start=\"56\"\u003ein-store purchase or local pickup only\u003c\/strong\u003e.
